Since biological entities are involved in intricate and complex relationships, it is essential to use network biology concepts when learning about biology. Network biology has become a systems-level, integrative approach to the comprehension of these complex interactions in recent years. One technique for condensing enormous data sets to clinically useful knowledge for disease diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment is biological network analysis. We can forecast drug targets for a number of diseases using the network of biological entities. The system biology-based drug targets aid in focusing on the vital biological pathways that contribute to the development and progression of the disease. Drugs can effectively combat multifactorial diseases with the help of the novel strategic approach of system biology assisted pharmacology that combines Computer-Aided Drug Discovery (CADD) with network biology. We have outlined the function and applications of network biology in the current review. These include elucidating the mechanisms underlying complex neurodevelopmental disorders as well as locating key drug targets for conditions like ADHD, Autism, Epilepsy, and Intellectual Disability. A promising strategy for identifying drug targets and pursuing targeted drug discovery for the effective treatment of neurodevelopmental disorders is systems biology. Recent Publications 1.
